ABS Issues AIP for Novel Offshore Wind Installation Technology from CLS Wind
ABS awarded approval in principle (AIP) to CLS Wind for its innovative wind turbine assembly system.
The patented elevator style assembly system promises easier, safer and faster wind turbine and nacelle installation and maintenance, without the use of large cranes and heavy-lift barges or vessels.
ABS completed design reviews based on class and statutory requirements.
“This is an exciting milestone for CLS Wind and domestic renewable energy production. ABS is committed to supporting the U.S. offshore wind industry, helping our partners and clients throughout the full life cycle of their projects,” said Rob Langford, ABS Vice President, Global Offshore Renewables.
